The AR10x96 Is Engineered to Meet FAA Requirements
The low profile barricades you see at airports today were not always the standard. It tooks years of innovation and refinement to end up with a low profile plastic barricade that performs as well as the AR10x96. We’re proud to produce a product that was specifically developed to meet (actually exceed!) FAA requirements.

The purpose of a low-profile airport barricade is to keep pilots from entering areas closed to aircraft and preventing construction personnel from entering aircraft active regions.
Effective barricades and lighting – FOD-free and resistant to jet blast – prevent serious accidents.
The FAA takes safety seriously and has created enforceable requirements (FAA AC 150/5370-2F) to maintain aircraft and personnel safety.
FAA REQUIREMENTS
The FAA requires that all barricades be jet blast resistant.
The AR10x96 low-profile barricade has been wind-tunnel tested and proven immovable during gusts up to 70 mph.
The FAA requires that all barricades be made of long lasting, UV resistant material.
OTW makes the AR10X96 out of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) which is both highly UV resistant and sturdy.
The FAA requires that barricades incorporate an interlocking feature that also prevents the introduction of unnecessary FOD.
The interlocking feature incorporated into OTW barricades create a FOD free connection that is resistant to jet blasts. This patented feature is unique to OTW barricades.
The FAA requires that barricade hazard flags be jet blast resistant.
OTW flags incorporate locking features (snap buttons) for easy insertion and to keep the flag within the barricade even at high wind speeds.
The FAA requires that barricade hazard lights operate during night and be red in color.
OTW lights hold a IP67 rating, stand up to extreme weather (-40∞C to 60∞C) and incorporate rechargeable batteries with solar panels for continuous run time to last multiple year projects.
